Titoli in Psicologia sociale e interazioni

Sembra una parola facile da pronunciare ma non è così. Non sempre riusciamo a dire grazie e a essere grati a qualcuno per ciò che ha fatto per noi. Eppure provare gratitudine è un'esperienza che fa star bene colui che dà e colui che riceve. È il motore che, nel consentire il riconoscimento di un beneficio ottenuto, ci impegna a restituirlo, cementando le nostre relazioni personali e sociali. In definitiva, essere grati conviene, oggi più che mai.

Você já ficou intrigado pensando no que faz com que um produto, um serviço ou mesmo atitudes virem moda da noite para o dia? Já imaginou que tipo de mudança faz, por exemplo, com que livros desconhecidos se transformem em best-sellers? Nesse audiolivro, Malcolm Gladwell apresenta uma maneira instigante e original de entender fenômenos sociais desse tipo: vê-los como epidemias. "Idéias, produtos, mensagens e comportamentos se espalham como vírus", diz o autor. E o momento decisivo em que essas novidades se alastram—ou se acabam—é o que ele chama de o Ponto da Virada.

Internationaler Bestseller vom Autor des "Überflieger: Warum manche Menschen erfolgreich sind - und andere nicht" und "The Tipping Point". Erst denken, dann handeln? Falsch!, sagt Malcolm Gladwell. Denn die Intuition kann in Bruchteilen von Sekunden Entscheidungen treffen, die besser sind als das Ergebnis langer Überlegungen oder Studien. Blink! nennt Malcolm Gladwell die Intuition der ersten zwei Sekunden.

Cercetările lui Leidy Klotz au condus la un adevăr simplu: indiferent dacă este vorba despre construirea unor jucării cu piese de lego, planurile de urbanizare, sendvișuri sau strategiile de afaceri, mintea e tentată să adauge, în loc să scadă. Adunăm instinctiv lucruri care nu ne trebuie neapărat. Le oferim stimulente celor cu performanțe remarcabile, dar nu ne gândim să înlăturăm obstacolele din calea lor. Ne însușim idei noi, care să ne facă lumea mai bună, dar nu renunțăm mai întâi la cele învechite și dăunătoare.

First published in 1895, The Crowd: A Study of the Popular Mind remains one of the most influential works on mass psychology and the behavior of crowds. Gustave Le Bon’s groundbreaking analysis explores how individuals, when part of a crowd, surrender their rationality and adopt a collective mindset driven by emotion, impulse, and unconscious influence.

Humans are born to create theories about the world - unfortunately, they're usually wrong, and keep us from understanding the world as it really is. Why do we catch colds? What causes seasons to change? And if you fire a bullet from a gun and drop one from your hand, which bullet hits the ground first? In a pinch, we almost always get these questions wrong. Worse, we regularly misconstrue fundamental qualities of the world around us.

The desire for dignity is universal and powerful. It is a motivating force behind all human interaction - in families, in communities, in the business world, and in relationships at the international level. When dignity is violated, the response is likely to involve aggression, even violence, hatred, and vengeance. On the other hand, when people treat one another with dignity, they become more connected and are able to create more meaningful relationships.

A new field of collective intelligence has emerged in the last few years, prompted by a wave of digital technologies that make it possible for organizations and societies to think at large scale.

So why do smart technologies not automatically lead to smart results?

Every day, we make decisions on topics ranging from personal investments to schools for our children to the meals we eat to the causes we champion. Unfortunately, we often choose poorly. The reason, the authors explain, is that, being human, we are all susceptible to various biases that can lead us to blunder. Our mistakes can make us poor and unhealthy. We often make bad decisions about education, personal finance, health care, family, and the environment.

Tutto sommato il conformismo gode di una certa fama, almeno in parte, immeritata. Una certa condivisione del modo di pensare e agire degli altri è indispensabile nella vita di relazione. È quando si sposano idee e si adottano comportamenti anche in contrasto con il nostro intimo sentire, solo per stare dalla parte della maggioranza, che si entra nell'accezione negativa del termine.
